Product description:

Glucosamine Sulfate (GS) is an amino sugar necessary for the construction of connective tissue. Glucosamine Sulfate (kcl) is usually made with sodium chloride (NaCl). For people on sodium-restricted diets, it is better to use GS made with potassium chloride (KCl)

Pharmacological Properties
Glucosamine Sulfate (GS) is produced in the body by the combination of glucose with glutamine to form Glucosamine through the enzymatic action of the enzyme glucosamine synthetase. The molecule is then sulfated by the action of cellular enzymes to form Glucosamine Sulfate (GS).

Like NAG, Glucosamine Sulfate (GS) is a component of glucosamine-glycans (or mucopolysaccharides) and glycoproteins which are integral parts of cell membranes and cell surface proteins, as well as the extracellular membranes and interstitial tissues which hold cells together. Glucosamine Sulfate (GS) plays a role in the formation of nails, tendons, skin, eyes, synovial fluid, bone, ligaments, heart valves and in mucous secretions of the digestive, respiratory and urinary tracts. Glucosamine Sulfate (GS) is created in the formation of proteins associated with cell adhesion, growth and structure. Absence of Glucosamine Sulfate (GS) in the diet can result in early aging of cells, loss of cellular function, susceptibility to bacterial and fungal infection, and cell death.
